The Third division crossed the
line approximately fifteen minutes
before General MacArthur’s ulti
matum to the North Korean govern
ment was broadcast from four
powerful army transmitters in
Tokyo and the restored civilian ra
dio at Seoul.
The question whether Korea’s
unification could come without
further bloodshed depended upon.
Kim II Sung, North Korean premier
and supreme commander, and his
field commander, Gen. Choi Yung
question remained unan
swered early Monday.
Prior to the dramatic broadcast
of MacArthur’s message in Korea,
Red Premier Kim II Sung sent a
message to Communist China’s
leader, Mao Tze-tung, that North
Koreans were “firmly resolved to
continue the fight to ultimate vic
tory—under support of the Chinese
people.”
Premier Barks
Prom China, the Communist pre
mier Chou En-lai in a bristling 11,
000 word speech observing the first
anniversary of the Peiping Red re
gime, declared:
China will not “supinely tolerate
seeing their neighbors being sav
agely invaded by imperialists.”
At Pusan, Korea, Chbu’s state
ment was dismissed by the chair
man of South Korea’s assembly
(congress) P. H. Shinicky as “only
a gesture ... only barking.”
However, American fighter pilots
Who returned from raids on North
Korea Saturday reported seeing at
least 22 North Korean planes in
cluding possibly six new jet fight
ers. They also reported the most in
tensive anti-aircraft fire of the war
in the vicinity of Pyongyans, Red
capital 70 air miles north of the
38th parallel. •
The Korean Red air force was vir
tually destroyed early in the war,
so the appearance of new planes
was possibly of high significance.

Kanin Comedy,
1st Fall Play,
Begins Oct. 27
By Don Smith
A rollicking comedy about a
cheap broad—that’s “Born Yester
day,” the first play of the Uni
versity theater regular season
scheduled for eight performances
begining Oct. 27.
The comedy, which ran for near
ly four years on Broadway, was the
first hit play written by Garson
Kanin. It traces the development
of a Brooklyn girl from a chorus
line, who is kept by a junk dealer,
who tries to muzzle in on Wash
ington politics.
Junks the Junk Dealer
The girl, Billie Dawn, starts tak
ing lessons from a newsman and
begins getting ideas about demo
cracy and what type of guy her
junk dealer is. She finally junks
the junk dealer—but not before
three acts of sparkling comedy
with dramatic overtones.
Judy Holliday and Paul Douglas
played the roles in the original
Broadway show. Douglas zoomed
from the play to Hollywood to ap
pear in such productions as "Let
ter to Three Wives.’
Miss Holiday, a long-time fav
orite on Broadway, also has a Hol
lywood contract. Her first role was
the dizzy blonde who shot her hus
band in “Adam’s Rib.” At present
Miss Holliday is working in the
film version of “Born Yesterday.”
Casting This Week
Casting for the show will be com
pleted this week, according to Di
rector Horace W. Robinson. Much
of the play depends upon the
women who plays Billie, a role
which is particularly difficult to
cast.
Your Uncle Sam may cut the
cigar tax, but millions will con
tinue to go up in smoke.
Beer in SU?
Majority Says
'No' in Poll
By Helen Jackson
With the call-to-Portland taking
so many students this weekend,
the Inquiring Reporter had to scout
around campus more than usual for
today's comments. The question
‘‘Shall we have beer in the Student
Union?” provoked serious thought
as a whole and most of those inter
viewed tended to think the idea
was a poor one. Their ideas are
yours to think over.
Mitzi Asai—Liberal Arts fresh
man from Hood River—“It seems
to me that there is enough here for
fun without beer—all the things
downstairs, etc.”
Mike Popovic h—sophomore
transfer from Santa Monica City
College “No—for several reasons
—because many students are too
young; many don’t drink now but
might start; there are enough re
creation facilities already and the
SU wouldn’t look particularly nice
with beer bottles all over the place.
There are adequate facilities
around campus for those who do
indulge anyway.”
Dorothy Govig—sophomore in
music—“My first thought would
be ‘no’ but I can’t give an good rea
son why I thought that.”
Richard Bogart—freshman in
liberal arts—“Why not?”
W. C. Martin—Cottage Grove,
father of two Oregon students—
d say ‘no’—with no need for
elaboration.”
Shelby Walch—graduate student
in psychology from UCLA—“Yes
I think as long as it is so close on
campus why not? It isn’t any far
ther to Taylor’s or the Side so we
might as well have the SU do the
business. There would be the prob
lem of the effect on younger stu
dents, however.”
Catherine Elder—senior in PE
and part time Main Desk clerk at
the SU—“I think it would sort of
spoil it—maybe it would be nice,
but not for me!”
9tr& Collegiate
By Barbara Fagg
One of the most striking new
items on the fashion scene around
the Oregon campus this fail is the
big pin or clip. We’re thinking
of those massive pieces of costume
jewelry that looks as if they have
been handed down from some “old
family” of Europe.
Gold or silver, most of these
pins have some sort of a crest
design worked into them. They
are heavy and always striking.
There seems to be no end of
uses to which an enterprizing coed
can put such a pin. We've seen
them on knotted silk scarves worn
with a skirt and sweater, on the
shoulder of a suit, on the pocket
of a flannel skirt, or worn on a
heavy chain around the neck with
a plain wool jersey blouse.
These pins can dress up almost
any outfit. They add a note of
sophistocation. Since no two are
alike they give the wearer an
exclusive look and make an ordin
ary costume look like something
special.
The younger generation’s great
mistake is that it has learned
things too readily from the older.
Right now there are probably as
many good lies in the club house
as there are on the golf course.
Cold cash sometimes makes a
fi’iendship warmer.
This is the season when the
jack of all trades goes into the

Music, Yells, Animals
Cheer Ducks in Defeat
By Phil Bottoms
An excellent hand, spirited yell leaders—plus an unattached
bagpiper and several peculiar animals helped add interest to the
xalUorma hears trouncing: of the Oregon Ducks in Portland
oaturciay.
Things didn't all begin on Saturday, however. The fli-ht

a few hard-studying freshmen. The
Cal team—which flew in from Ber
keley-arrived at Multnomah sta
dium behind a police escort. Later
events proved all that was unnec
essary; those Bears take care of
themselves very well.
T O Band Plays
Early arrivals at the stadium
heard the UO band playing on the
field one of the tunes they were
practicing was “Hail to California.”
This elicited some unkind comments
from a few Duck rooters.
Then the fun really began! The
crowd streamed into the stadium;
cries of “Pigger” echoed through
the stands as some unsuspecting
freshmen showed up with dates.
Oregon spirits were high; there were
an unusually large number of un
usually large coats seen about the
stadium. Apparently everyone was
afraid it might turn cold suddenly.
Animals Attend
Down by the 25 yard line a vari
ety of animals seemed to have wan
dered in. One of them was identified
as Ken Griffin, Sederstrom Hall
counselor, whose accurate rendi
tion of a horse’s whinny—followed
by a most unusual battle cry from a
near-by rooter—was heard during
the game.
Another of the strange menager
ie heard bawling in the stands turn
ed out to be a fellow from Coquille
with a bagpipe. He played several
inspiring tunes on his instrument,
and paraded back and forth under
the bleachers several times. The
bagpiper, Hollis Hill, was later
seen downtown, serenading the
I 01 tlanders from the window of a
hotel room.
Half-time Activities^
During half time the Oregon band
played songs of the various schools
Oregon will meet on the football
field this year. They also formed the
initial leters of the schools as they
played their school song. The score
at this time, by the way, was 21-7
but who cares about score ?
Hollis Hill again got out his pipes
during the second half, and he was
soon drawing about as much atten
tion from the Oregon rooters as the
game itself. Nothing particularly
exciting hapened on the field dur
ing this half—except that the Bears
scored another touchdown.
Took Over Portland
After the game, the UO rooters
pioceeded to take over the town of
Portland. Carloads of students with
out dates dragged all the main
streets—without success. Mobs of
dateless rooters stormed the vari
ous dances—without success. The;
luckier ones were able to crash a
few of the numerous parties held
that evening in celebration of the
victory. (?).
By Sunday morning, Portland
was practically deserted. The Cal
team had long since gone—some
were seen sniffling idly at a large
bouquet of roses, and dreaming of
things to come. The Oregon rooters
were straggling back to Eugene,
thinking about “next time when we
meet those so-n-so Bears ..." And
another football game—and an
other long-to-be-remembered week
i end—was over.
German Police Arrest Agitators
(Continued from page our)
French authorities indicated yesterday in a press conference that
this is a full-scale military operation, intended to drive into the very
heart of Red concentration in Indochina. But military authorities say
that any French attempt to hold onto this wild jungle country could
prove costly, and the drive may be a punitive expedition. One objective
could be to ease pressure which strong Vietminh concentrations are
exerting on French frontier posts.
In Formosa, Nationalists...
yesterday were expected to be giving fresh instructions to their
United Nations delegation on the security council’s decision to hear
Chinese Red charges of American, aggression against Formosa.
Dismay and uneasiness in the Chinese Nationalist capital was the
apparent result of the UN’s decision to hear Red complaints about the'
Formosa situation. Authorities arc hinting* that Chiang Kai-Shek’s
government feels the UN decision to invited a Red China representative
to present the charges might become a wedge to dislodge the Nationalists'
in favor of the Communists.
Other Communist action, this time in New Delhi, India, has re
sulted in the American motion picture, “The Conspirator” (Robert Tay
lor—Elizabeth Taylor) being banned from New Delhi theaters. The pic
ture deals harshly with Communism. The ban, imposed by ci ty officials,
is reported to have come after vigorous objections from the Russian,
embassy. But the city officials declined to give a reason for their decision.
British Troops Sailed...
yesterday for Korea from Liverpool, Eng. Many of the troops are
openly unhappy with having to leave their civilian jobs to fight a war.
They’re sailing aboard the troopship Empire Pride. About 800 men make
up the contingent, the first battalion, Royal Ulster Rifle Regiment.
Clustered around War Minister John Strachey at the dockside, many
of the troops asked, “How long shall we be away?”
There is no answer to that question, although of course the position
is more encouraging for you now,” the lanky war minister told them.
About half of the battalion is made up of regular army men; the rest are
reservists. Some said they were “cheesed off” at having been recalled to
active service. They average about 30 years of age.
In contrast to the reservists, most of the regular army men were in
high spirits. • '
President Truman Slept...
yesterday aboard the presidential yacht Williamsburg, taking timo
off from the grind of duties which have kept him busy almost constantly
since the outbreak of the Korean war. ‘
Truman plans to take a Potomac cruise on the Williamsburg, sun
bathing, reading the papers, and generally "taking it easy.” He was
attired yesterday in one of his well-known colorful sportshirts.
